Elon Musk’s commitment to free speech on his platform X is being questioned by users. The debate is fueled by instances where Musk appears to have censored or restricted speech, despite his public advocacy for free speech.
X users expressed disappointment and skepticism, highlighting the inconsistency between Musk’s statements and actions, and calling for a more transparent and consistent approach to free speech on the platform.
The discussion includes various examples of accounts being blocked or content being restricted, which some users argue contradicts Musk’s stance on free speech.
There are also concerns about Musk’s actions in relation to specific events, such as blocking a Bellingcat investigation into a Russian missile attack on a children’s hospital in Kyiv.
